The Bible tells us that God has given each of us spiritual gifts, and we are to use those gifts in God’s kingdom. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to know your gifts, so you could be serving in the ways you are supposed to serve? Gifts such as administration, helping, encouragement (and 18 more) help us understand how we are to serve in our areas of passion in the Kingdom.

For instance, someone who is passionate about teaching children about faith and has the gift of administration might coordinate registration for Vacation Bible School.

Or, someone who is passionate about feeding the hungry, but very shy, and has a gift of helping might be willing to shop for the food pantry. A person with the gift of encouragement might volunteer at the pantry to interact with clients.
